I should sleep soon saturdailies

wooo 12:07 am!
probably doing a long run later. It's going to suck haha. My own fault.

post 'em!

you should do it right now!

hah I just got back from practice.

lol ARe you serious?

yeah. Its at 7 but we usually dont warmup till 7.15ish and its gets over around 8.30ish and it takes me like 15 minutes to get home.. usually around 9 is when I roll in. So you guys are sleeping and i'm just starting my workout, Its weird when you think about it

I didnt think team practices start that late. Its about 1 o'clock here in illniois.

Doing an easy 3 today.

Long

first day of practice!!!!!
im so excited.

I think we have f/r today.

But I'll probably run anyway--3-6 miles easy.

Long run of 10 miles.
That's cool you guys have practice late in the day. Mine is at 6:00 AM.

Our practices are at 8 in the morning during the summer, and 3 in the afternoon during the school year.

anyway, doing 9 miles today, which will be the farthest I've ever gone
change of plans: ended up doing a 3 mile tempo with some serious hills

10 mile recovery.

Easy 7 with team at 7:30 pace.

The past week I've just been running as long as I feel like, and my easy pace is already dropping and I feel fresher than usual.

first "race" today. just took it as a tempo, ended up at 21:15 which is ok i guess. ill be running 4th on the JV team next week and hopefully ill have a shot at varsity.

practice was horrible. D:
there were a bunch of new freshman, no returning girls showed up besides me, mainly because they didn't know. so i had to run with the fast boys that are sub 5 minute miles! it was exhausting. then we got back to the track and ran another fast mile then played ultimate frisbee against the freshman instead of doing strides. and there were no water breaks at all even though it was a 3 hour practice.

no team led practice or officia..... yet,Monday!! =]

Loonng run.

10 miles 1:02:04

Time trial. I'm in pretty much the same boat as Amherst. 21:37. This is the hardest course in the state, though, and our #1 (16:2x) ran 19:15, so I figure I'm in about 19:0x shape for a relatively fast course. I also had to stop twice. Once to rip a massive stick off of one of my spikes and once to let the cramp to end all cramps subside, so had everything gone perfectly I think I'd be looking at 20:5x.

Sorry for the excuses and massive leaps of logic. I'm trying to feel better about myself.

hmmm probably about 7 miles w/ 10X 30s pickups. ...I didn't run yesterday because I went to the beach instead. haha it was fun.

freaking hard course today for me too. lots of hills, and it was hot. i got 6th in 17:50. http://www.racedmc.com/2008cc/Aug23/boystall.txt

hopefully i'll be high 16s, low 17s next saturday.

but anyway

3m w/u
3m race
4m easy later

10 altogether

first race. really bad...

RACE DAY!
3 mile warm-up/jogged the course...
5K race...took 18th & got my 2nd medal! ALSO I cut 1:30 off of my time from a year ago on this course.
2-mile cool down...

As the ref said "On your marks," there was "thunder" so they called the race off...then they quickly realized that it was just a car...errg! SO, they called us back to the line only to have lightening...2-hours later, we FINALLY had our race. Umm so the course was covered in puddles and we had a ball. My team took 1st place! Other than regionals last year, that's the first first place we have had within the past 5 years....

Race Day for me too

First ever 5K, 17:36 on a hilly course

And with Hurdle-Gurl we won our first meet in 7 years and it was pretty exciting

longer run later
